It's large footprint makes it ideal for renovation rather than replacement, kind of similar as to what they did with the Gator Bowl in 1994 (though you could argue that was essentially a replacement). What The Bank needs most of all right now is a roof, 1PM starts used to be a great advantage to the team but having 65k fans baking in the September Florida heat simply isn't sustainable anymore.

Quote: Lamping and Jaguars owner Shad Khan’s desire to shield fans from the heat and sun at the stadium is well known. That issue was raised in a January panel discussion hosted by Northbank and Southbank residents group The Downtown Dwellers.

[He reiterated Monday that the east side of the stadium is particularly vulnerable to the sun.

At least they are aware. The question is who will pay for it?

On that matter I'd say to the people in Duval; bend over, grit your teeth, and don't let them see you cry.

ABOUT US
The Jungle Forums is the Jaguars' biggest fan message board. Talking about the Jags since 2006, the Jungle was the team-endorsed home of all things Jaguars.

Since 2017, the Jungle is now independent of the team but still run by the same crew. We are here to support and discuss all things Jaguars and all things Duval!
